Protocolbot d19a75ace4 fix: rename seed files and IDs to match cleaned titles
All 100 seed YAML files now have:
- Filenames that match their id field
- IDs that are slugs of their titles
- No cultural identifiers in titles or IDs

70 files renamed. e.g. quaker-meeting-for-worship.yaml -> meeting-for-worship.yaml,
moroccan-jmaa-village.yaml -> jmaa-village-assembly.yaml,
japanese-hansei.yaml -> hansei-reflection.yaml

title: Open Agile Roadmap Planning
description: >-
A collaborative planning method where a team builds a visual roadmap by
placing stories on a timeline together, negotiating dependencies and
priorities in real time. Used in Agile and Lean software teams as a
alternative to top-down roadmap assignment.

steps:
- headline: Lay out the timeline
description: >-
A long wall or board is laid out with a time axis — quarters or
months. The team gathers around it with story cards ready.
- headline: Place stories together
description: >-
Each team member places stories they believe belong on the roadmap,
explaining the placement. Others may move them, with discussion.
- headline: Negotiate dependencies
description: >-
The team draws dependency arrows between stories, surfacing what
must come before what. Conflicts are resolved in the open.
- headline: Mark priorities and risks
description: >-
The team marks the highest-priority stories and the highest-risk
ones, so the roadmap shows not only sequence but attention.
- headline: Photograph and commit
description: >-
The roadmap is photographed and recorded. The team commits to it as
a living plan, revisiting it each iteration.
outcome: >-
A shared roadmap that all participants shaped, with dependencies and
priorities visible, owned by the team rather than handed down.
practice: >-
The physical placement is the point — people who place cards themselves
commit to them more than those who receive a slide. Revisit it; a
roadmap that does not change is not being used.
